## Reviews

### "It's good for the price" — 3.0/5

> **Ninos** | *July 12, 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SwifDoo PDF is good for PDF editing, especially text. 
It's easy to use, doesn't require a learning curve.
overall its lightweight especially compared to the other known software.
You can insert images (signature)
> 
> **Cons**: The licencing method is totally broken.
There's no way of knowing or managing which device is connected / used licence
There's no way of removing/adding new devices.
if you use your licence on one PC that's it for life.

I had to move away from SwifDoo because I changed my laptop\!
--

another con would be it gets a bit "laggy" sometimes editing PDFs
> 
> Overall it's an average software , it could be improved. for small simple tasks it's good i guess - however take note of the licence management notes above -

### "Nice product" — 5.0/5

> **Amy** | *March 25, 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I won't lie, the first thing that caught my attention was the unique name for this product, first time it was offered for free, I tried it then, the rest is history\! A strong alternative to most PDF editors, it has all the features I needed and more, a very reliable piece of software that I'm sure to use for many years to come.
> 
> **Cons**: They had a very confusing account management platform, already fixed so I'm a happy user.
> 
> Smooth sailing, all one has to do is create an account and start using the software immediatly.

2. Feature rich app with all of the features that I need in relation to PDF files editing, conversion, watermarking etc.
3. Easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: I have not found anything to dislike anything so far.

### "Review" — 4.0/5

> **Bailey** | *November 15, 2022* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I've only been using it for a couple days but so far it is easy to use and I think it will be a nice alternative to Adobe
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing I have found so far is not being able to paste pages into another document without merging the documents, but other than that I have not found anything else to not like

-----

### "Download does not work" — 1.0/5

> **Frank** | *October 6, 2022* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: When looking at online reviews, the product looked like what I needed. I was looking forward to using it. I have been downloading it daily since I purchased the perpetual license, but this has not worked.
> 
> **Cons**: After downloading the product, I entered what I considered to be the license key. The software closed, and since then it will not stay open (not even the free trial). Contacting customer support was no help, because the instructions for the download are in the product. The customer service staff could not offer a means to use it.  Looking at the FAQs, I found a different set of instructions, which also did not work.
> 
> Negative. Customer support does not seem to read the emails about what the problem is.
